I haven't packed yet and I'm still in bed, trying to enjoy the morning before it gets hectic. My secretary finally booked me a flight and sent me my itinerary Saturday evening. So all's set. I'm going away on a business trip and I hope I'd get to have some fun, even just for a bit. I won't be here in mylot during those days for sure. But I'll be back to catch up with you all. It's the last week of September and as I've expected, this month was a really busy one for us. How's your September been?

Have a safe trip, we always made so that we were able to have at least one free days during our business trips. It's nice to relax and enjoy the new places you visit.

I did enjoy but wasn't really able to relax. The whole time I was there I only had 2-3 hours of sleep every single day.

@LadyDuck I'm in the office now. Salary day tomorrow and I have to sign some checks. Went out of the house early as I had appointments. No way to rest.

@toniganzon Only sleeping 2 to 3 hours is impossible to relax. I hope you can rest a bit now.

I hope you will have a good business trip and everything will go alright and then you can have spare time to relax in another city. I have been busy with work this month. Fortunately next month we have a National holiday and I look forward to it a lot.

@peachpurple Me and my business partner wanted to check-in in a nice hotel but my friend offered his condo, so we stayed there the whole time. We had some fun night at a bar.

Busy is good I think. For us, busy means the business is good and I expect October to be busier than September.
